RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a National Phase of PCT Patent Application No. PCT/CN2015/086487 having International filing date of Aug. 10, 2015, which claims the benefit of priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 201510386937.1 filed on Jul. 2, 2015. The contents of the above applications are all incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein in their entirety.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the technical field of display driving, and in particular to a scan driving circuit.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A gate driver on array, called GOA for abbreviation, has a scan driving circuit manufactured on an array substrate of a conventional thin-film transistor liquid crystal display for performing the progressive scan driving on scanning lines.

However, it is required for a conventional scan driving circuit to use the clock signals (CK) and the cascade signals of the previous stage (Q_N−1). Since the cascade signals of the previous stage are subject to the interference of the clock signal (CK), the normal display driving is influenced. Moreover, the fluctuation of the cascade signals of the preceding stage (Q_N−1) causes the extra power consumption of the scan driving circuit.

Therefore, it is necessary to provide a scan driving circuit, in order to solve the problems of the prior art.
